Human Hunting Is Driving the World's Biggest Animals Toward Extinction
20 Types of Extinct Animals
There are many animals that have already gone extinct due to natural causes and human activities. In the last few hundred years alone, numerous species have been wiped out primarily by human hunters. A new analysis found that 70 percent of the world's biggest animals have been lost due to human activities.
Human activities have caused the world's wildlife populations to plummet by more than two-thirds in the last 50 years. Despite good news for animals such as the European bison, a total of 31 species have been declared extinct, including three frogs of Central America, the Spix's Macaw, and the golden toad.
